The draw-rod system can be divided level with the mounting
flange. Fig. 16 shows the draw-rod system and the joints
that are locked at delivery.
The additional joint at flange level must be locked with
locking fluid (Loctite 242 and activator Loctite T747) on site.
The threads must be degreased before applying the locking
fluid.

The lower draw-rod can be used for supporting the bottom
contact and the cables in the transformer tank during
transport of the transformer/reactor, as shown in Fig. 15.
Mounting of the draw-rod must be performed
